Great Britain are poised to win their Davis Cup relegation play-off against Ukraine thanks to two contrasting singles victories on day one in Odessa.
Veteran Greg Rusedski, 33, saved a match point on his way to a memorable 1-6 6-3 5-7 6-4 9-7 win over Sergiy Stakhovsky, 20, in the opening rubber.
Then Andy Murray beat fellow teenager Aleksandr Dolgopolov 6-3 6-4 6-2.
Rusedski and Murray are due to team up in the doubles but skipper John Lloyd has hinted he may now rest Rusedski. |
